.Definitely, these MCs deserve much more appreciation and love.
Their thciker case, compared to the vintage Dayto, is an asset, as you said it very well.
A Vintage Dayto and a Tudor MC, that is something to consider.
I would sound like an heretic, but I must say that I much prefer these MCs with their ss bezel than with their plastic.
Now the question remains: Which one?
Yours is superb, but I also feel some strong love for the 7031. Both would be ideal!
Congratulations, my friend. Another one I will have to soon see in the flesh!
Nicolas.
